خَضِيبٌ Anything dyed, tinged, or changed in colour; [generally, with hinnà;] as also ↓ مَخْضُوبٌ: the former is both masc. and fem.: and its pl. is خُضُبٌ. (TA.) You say كَفٌّ خَضِيبٌ (S, A, K) and ↓ خَاضِبٌ (TA voce ضَارِبٌ) [A hand dyed with hinnà]: and بَنَانٌ خَضِيبٌ and ↓ مَخْضُوبٌ (K) and ↓ مُخَضَّبٌ (S, A, K) [fingers, or fingers' ends, dyed with hinnà]; but the last of these has an intensive signification. (S.) b2: And hence, (TA,) الكَفُّ الخَضِيبُ (assumed tropical:) A certain star; (S, A, K;) the star β of Cassiopeia; (so in the Egyptian almanacs;) [i. e.] the bright star of the constel-lation called ذَاتُ الكُرْسِىِّ; which star is [termed] the extended right hand of الثُّرَيَّا [or the Pleiades; corresponding to the star called الكَفُّ الجَذْمَآءُ]. (Kzw. [See أَجْذَمُ.]) b3: And اِمْرَأَةٌ خَضِيبٌ [A woman having her hands, or feet, or hair, &c., dyed with hinnà or the like]. (K.) خَاضِبٌ A man dyeing, or who dyes, his hair with hinnà. (Msb.) b2: See also خَضِيبٌ. b3: Also (tropical:) A male ostrich (S, A, K, &c.) whose shanks (A, K) and legs (A) have become red, (A, K,) or green, [app. meaning of a dark, or an ashy, dustcolour,] or yellow, (A,) in consequence of his lusting after the female, (A, K,) or in consequence of his having eaten the [herbage termed] رَبِيع: (A:) or the front edges of whose shanks have become red, (S, K,) or green, (K,) or yellow, in consequence of his having eaten the [herbage termed] ربيع: (S, K:) or whose beak and shanks have become red from his having eaten the [herbage termed] ربيع: in the summer (الصَّيْف) he becomes bald (يقرع), and his shanks become white: (L:) or whose shanks have become green by reason of lust in the [season termed] ربيع: (ADk:) accord. to some, (TA,) it is applied only to the male ostrich: (S, K:) but some explain it without this restriction; and Lth mentions [the fem.] خَاضِبَةٌ as applied to an ostrich: [it is said that] the skin of the neck, and that of the breast, and that of the thighs, of the male ostrich, but not his feathers, become intensely red when he lusts after the female: or, as some say, خاضب signifies an ostrich that has eaten green food: (TA:) or the extremities of whose feathers are dyed by [the eating of] blossoms, and the slender parts of whose legs have become red by the same cause: accord. to an Arab of the desert, supposed to be Aboo-Kheyreh, in the [season termed]

ربيع, when it eats أَسَارِيع [app. meaning certain worms so called], its legs and beak assume the red hue of the عُصْفُر [or safflower]: (AHn, L:) or خاضب is applied to a male ostrich the slender parts of whose legs become red when the dates begin to become red, and cease to be so when the redness of the dates ceases: (AHn, K:) so that it is not from eating اساريع, which, it is said, no ostrich is known to eat: accord. to As, the cause [of the redness above mentioned] is only the dye of blossoms; but were it so, the bird would also become yellow, and green, &c., [and some assert that it partially does, as has been shown above,] accord. to the colours of the blossoms and herbs; and the green colour would predominate: [but, as the Arabs say, this requires consideration:] whatever be the cause, the bird, it is said, is termed خاضب on account of the redness that affects its shanks: and this word is [said to be] an epithet used as a proper name of the bird: (AHn, L:) but this is a mistake, unless it mean that, because of its prevailing application, it is used in the same manner as الحٰرِثُ and العَبَّاسُ, not that it may be used [in a determinate sense] without the article ال: (L:) the pl. is خَوَاضِبُ. (TA.) It is also said to be applied as an epithet to Any animal that eats خَضْب [q. v.]: (TA:) and particularly to [the species of bovine antelope called] the wild bull (الثَّوْرُ الوَحْشِىُّ).

1 مَسَحَ شَيْئًا, aor. ـَ inf. n. مَسْحٌ; and ↓ مسّحهُ, inf. n تَمْسِيحٌ; He wiped a thing that was wet or dirty, with his hand, or passed his hand over it to remove the wet or dirt that was upon it: (L:) مَسْحٌ and تَمْسِيحٌ and ↓ تَمَسُّحٌ signifying the passing the hand over a thing that is flowing [with water or the like], or dirtied, soiled, or polluted, to remove the fluid or dirt, or soil or pollution; (L, K;) as when one wipes his head with his hand to remove water; and his forehead, to remove sweat. (L.) [It often signifies He stroked a thing with his hand; as, for instance, the Black Stone of the Kaabeh; see below.] b2: مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ المَآءِ; and جَبِينَهُ الرَّشَحِ; He wiped his head with his hand to remove the water that was upon it; and his forehead to remove the sweat. (L.) b3: مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ (S) He wiped with his hand, or passed his hand closely over, his head, or a part thereof, without making any water to flow upon it: so in the Kur, v. 8; where it is said, فَاغْسِلُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوا بِرُؤُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ

إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ: here أَرْجُلَكُمْ is in the acc. case as an adjunct to ايديكم; [i.e., as a third objective complement to the verb اغسلوا; not as an adjunct to رؤوسكم;] but some read أَرْجُلِكُمْ, putting it in the gen. case because of its proximity to رؤوسكم; (Jel;) [in like manner as خَرِبٍ is put in the gen. case in the phrase هٰذَا جُحْرُ ضَبٍّ خَرِبٍ, an ex. given by many of the grammarians, showing that this is allowable in prose,] notwithstanding that it is said, by Aboo-Is-hák the grammarian, that the putting a noun in the gen. case because of its proximity to a preceding noun in that case is not allowable except in poetry, when necessity requires it: (L:) the head, which is wiped, is mentioned between the arms and the feet, which are washed, to show the order which is to be observed in the purification. (Jel.) But مَسَحَ signifies both he wiped with the hand, and also he washed: so says IAth: (L:) and Az and IKt say the like: (Msb:) you say مَسَحْتُ يَدَىَّ بالمَآءِ, meaning I washed my hands with water. (Az, Msb.) b4: مَسَحَ شَيْئًا بِالمَآءِ He wiped a thing with his hand wetted with water; passed his hand, wetted with water, over a thing. (Msb.) b5: مَسَحَ البَيْت He compassed the House [of God, i.e. the Kaabeh: because he who does so passes his hand over the corner in which is the Black Stone].

(L.) b12: فُلَانٌ يَمْسَحُ رَأْسَ زَيْدٍ (tropical:) Such a one beguiles, or deceives, Zeyd. (A.) [See also 3.] b13: مَسَحَ, inf. n. مَسْحٌ and تَمْسَاحٌ He lied; uttered what was false. (K.) b14: مَسَحَ فِى الأَرْضِ, inf. n. مُسُوحٌ, He set forth journeying through the land, or earth: (A'Obeyd, K: *) as also مَصَحَ. (TA.) b15: مَسَحَهُمْ (tropical:) He passed lightly by them, or brushed by them, without remaining by them. (L.) b16: مَسِحَ, [aor. ـَ inf. n. مَسَحٌ, The inner sides of his (a man's, S) thighs rubbed together, (S, L, K,) so as to become sore and chapped: (L:) or he had the inner side of his knee inflamed by the roughness of his garment.

(TA.) b18: مَسَحَتِ الإِبِلُ يَوْمَهَا (tropical:) The camels journeyed all the day. (S.) مَسَحَتِ الإِبِلُ الأَرْضَ يَوْمَهَا دَأْبًا (tropical:) The camels journeyed all the day laboriously. (TA.)

Agreeably with both these significations مَسْحًا is rendered in the Kur, xxxviii. 32: some say that what is here meant is the wiping with the hand wetted with water: accord. to IAth, Solomon is here said to have smitten the necks and hock-tendons of the horses. (L.) [See art. طفق.] مَسَحَهُ بِالسَّيْفِ He smote him with the sword: (L:) and he cut him with the sword: (S, L:) or مَسَحَهُ signifies he struck him gently with a staff, or stick, and with a sword.
